I can’t find confirmation of this. Malkin (Michelle, not Evgeni) says it was leaked to her, and that may very well be true and the results haven’t yet been published. Recall that the Susquehanna poll yesterday had Lt. Col. Bill Russell only four points behind Murtha, after him calling his own constituents racists and all? […]

Not election related, but a huge bag of M&Ms, thanks to Hot Air:
The Supreme Court rejected the latest appeal from Mumia Abu-Jamal today, declining to reverse his conviction. His death sentence was overturned in March, forcing Pennsylvania to either retry his sentencing in front of a new jury or accept a life sentence instead.
Fry, […]

Now, that is the John McCain I know!
I don’t need lessons about telling the truth to American people. And were I ever to need any improvement in that regard, I probably wouldn’t seek advice from a Chicago politician.
Zing! Oh, but there’s more. The gloves are off.
Senator Obama has accused me of opposing regulation to avert […]

Don “The Bowie Knife” Surber, on the top of my list along with Jules Crittenden as a blogger I’d like to meet some day:
Republican Sarah Palin draws 60,000.
Democrat Barack Obama draws 13,000.

Gallup reports in their 9/1-7 poll that Obama is ahead only among 18-29 year olds. Reliapundit snarks:
Awesome.
Only quasi-adolescents can believe in Obama at this point.
Funny, but more to the point, as we near the election, Obama is relying more and more on the support of votes that have never materialized. And McCain’s strongest support is […]

Okay, it’s Zogby, so that makes it diabetic candy, but hey, enjoy! First, Florida:
Barack Obama could be on the verge of falling out of contention in Florida.
Despite spending an estimated $8-million on campaign ads in America’s biggest battleground state and putting in place the largest Democratic campaign organization ever in Florida, Obama has lost ground […]

Think so?
This whole Obama thing has *got* to be a put-on by the DNC. Any minute Allen Funt will pop out and they’ll announce the real ticket is Hillary Clinton and Phil Bredesen (or Mark Warner) or something, right?
Pretty good, but so is this one:
I think they spent months trying to figure out how they […]

And from the AP, no less.
Eighty percent say McCain, with nearly three decades in Congress, has the right experience to be president. Just 46 percent say Obama, now in his fourth year in the Senate, is experienced enough. Another 47 percent say Obama lacks the proper experience—an even worse reading than the 36 percent who […]

The Times. ‘She’s one of us’: Palin wins over Obama women:
If Mr Obama should be in any doubt how gravely the vice-presidential nomination of the Governor of Alaska has imperilled his White House ambitions, then a day spent in Macomb County will make this clear: white women who voted for John Kerry in 2004 are […]

McCain up three points in one day.
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows John McCain up by three points, his largest lead since Obama wrapped up the Democratic Presidential Nomination. For most of the past several months, Obama has held a modest lead with McCain slipping ahead by a single point on […]

Gallup:
A potential shift in fortunes for the Republicans in Congress is seen in the latest USA Today/Gallup survey, with the Democrats now leading the Republicans by just 3 percentage points, 48% to 45%, in voters’ “generic ballot” preferences for Congress. This is down from consistent double-digit Democratic leads seen on this measure over the past […]

CNN essentially chopped up Rove’s editorial in the WSJ then printed it, and any idiot should be able to see that Rove is completely right.
“If Mr. Obama keeps attacking Mrs. Palin, he could suffer the fate of his Democratic predecessors. These assaults highlight his own tissue-thin résumé, waste precious time better spent reassuring voters he […]

Oh, those poor things!
Polls showing John McCain tied or even ahead of Barack Obama are stirring angst and second-guessing among some of the Democratic Party’s most experienced operatives, who worry that Obama squandered opportunities over the summer and may still be underestimating his challenges this fall.
“It’s more than an increased anxiety,” said Doug Schoen, who […]

Atlantic:
The huge crowds Gov. Sarah Palin attracts are one thing, but enthusiasm about the Alaska governor has produced an outpouring of volunteers for the GOP’s get-out-the-vote program.
According to a Republican official, countywide, seven to ten times as many new volunteers are signing to help as compared to the same days a month ago.
The day McCain […]

Anecdotal, but still. WaPo: Palin Energizing Women From All Walks of Life.
And Charles Austin makes an acute observation:
So let me get this straight, Senator Obama is too smart to call Sarah Palin a pig but not smart enough to realize how bad this comment is going to sound to anyone not basking in the glow […]

MSNBC:
One significant shift in the poll is among women. Back in August, Obama was leading McCain by 14 points. Now his lead is just four points.
And just a month ago, McCain trailed Obama by 20 points among women ages 18 to 49. Now the Arizona Republican leads by three points.
For the innumerate (is that […]

Huge: 20-point shift towards McCain among white women since last month in new ABC poll

This is from Rasmussen’s latest poll results. This is like posting something from the WSJ (at least before they dropped the subscriber firewall). I’m a Rasmussen subscriber and I’m not sure what’s behind the firewall and what isn’t. So if this link doesn’t work for you, this one will (though it won’t have all of […]

They’re having serious problems on the other end, apparently. I’ll check it later, but if nothing else, I can watch it afterwards (and the sound is barely audible, so maybe they’ll fix that).
Oh. I almost forgot.
Rasmussen:
Forty-one percent (41%) of voters say that they are certain they will cast their ballot for McCain and will not […]
